Anna Jansson

In Anna Jansson's "Killer's Island," a brutal murder shakes the mythic town of Visby on Gotland, where a nurse is found killed and displayed as a bride. This chilling scene echoes the local legend of the White-Sea Lady, a ghost who lures men to their deaths after drowning on her wedding night. The myth, originating from when Tjelvar lit a fire 3,000 years ago causing the island to rise from the sea, seems to come alive with this crime. As the investigation unfolds, the line between myth and reality blurs, drawing readers into a suspenseful narrative set against the backdrop of Gotland's haunting history.
